Today Miss R had me help with the small group time. The children were practicing writing the word "go" and the number 3. I had the kids work on a worksheet which had the word" go" for them to trace over and over. After they practiced writing the word "go" they had to each tell me how to spell it. So each one of them took turns with me while i watched them trace the word and the spell it out. It was interesting to see some of the children tell me "og". in their mind as long as they had all the letters then it was correct. Or when they practiced writing the word I noticed a couple students had their sheets upside down while tracing. So it was important that I showed them the order of the letters and how to sound it out. Miss R has a well planned out schedule everyday with her students. She also has meeting that she goes to after school. Or for example this Monday is "Minimal Day" where the teachers have a shorter teaching day and have meeting after school gets out early.
